"It's a friendly way to walk into the room," Williams told Larry King on today's episode. "It breaks up the crowd, so that people don't think I'm there for evil, I'm there for good. Because I'm a very tall woman."

Larry asked Wendy about her huge rise in popularity since her transition from radio to TV, and whether she's worried about her ever-growing competition in the daytime talk market.

"I'm running this TV race with blinders on," said Williams. "I'm a thoroughbred. I don't need to look to the left or right. I'm competing with myself."
